I’m quite happy with the formula I found to tune a 1-pole/no-zero digital low-pass filter in the form y ← y + c * (x - y).

It can set the cutoff frequency way above Nyquist and matches well the passband response of an ideal continuous-time equivalent filter (black curve). It is slightly shelf-shaped when the cutoff is close to Nyquist, but that’s the limitation of the lack of zero.

It’s a good way to tune the damping filter of a #reverb!

The formula remains fast to compute (a square root and a few mul/add). See Coefficient calculation > c5() and c3().

(I'm not sure what I write in this toot is exact, please feel free to correct me)

When doing real-time #AudioProgramming you usually need to implement a function/procedure that will run once for every block of audio samples. Since that function needs to be very responsive, it must contain no memory allocation.

As a corollary, that means languages with automatic memory management are off the table, because you can't trust them not to allocate memory during that procedure.

Now there's this thing called #LinearTypes , which, as far I understand, can be used to control how memory is allocated. And #haskell has them.

So my question is: could one use Haskell with linear types for real-time audio programming? Or does it not offer the guarantees we need w.r.t. control over memory allocations?
